"creature of habit" has such a negative vibe. i mean, firstly, i am not a creature. and secondly, just because i've found specific things that i enjoy to do at regular intervals doesn't make them habits. i like to come to starbucks and sit in the bestest chair and write notes to you. are you complaining about my note-writing? and, sure, if the bestest chair is taken, i am not generally what you would call "happy" about that, but jeez, it's the bestest for a reason. i mean, it's not like i have unaccountably latched onto it. the bestest chair is an armchair that faces the door, back to the wall. who likes people behind them all breathing down their neck? no one, that's who. what i'm saying is that it's not my unsubstantiatedly random favorite chair - it is everyone's favorite chair. it's just that good. but it's not like i have to come to starbucks every day. it's not like if i come here, i have to sit in the bestest chair. it's not even like i feel compelled to write to you every time. sometimes i come here and read a book and don't pay you any mind at all. ha! you didn't even know that.

alls i am saying is liking to do certain things in certain ways doesn't make those things habits, and it certainly doesn't make me a creature.
